GTA 5 film “Grand Theft Hamlet” shot entirely inside the game is coming to US theaters
Share link:
A film “Grand Theft Hamlet” shot entirely inside GTA 5 based on Shakespeare’s Hamlet is soon to hit US theaters as well as streaming globally.
It is common for the films to be inspired by games like the Minecraft and Roblox movies. However Grand Theft Hamlet is an unusual film shot (read: screen recorded) entirely in the game.
The story of the film follows the two jobless actors as they try to produce a stage play of Shakespeare’s Hamlet within the violent world of GTA.
The film created by Pinny Grylls and Sam Crane is also critically acclaimed. The Variety wrote “The backdrop is tantalizing beyond the mordant amusement of seeing actors die on stage in ways they haven’t before”. On the other hand, Hollywood Reporter mentions the film as “highly amusing and often touching.”
The film has also won a documentary feature competition at SXSW Film Festival
